He Endured Three Hell Weeks! Why This Navy SEAL Refused to Quit

from Making Shooters Better · host Terry Vaughan

He didn’t grow up around guns.He didn’t look like the obvious candidate.And twice… his body literally shut down on him.But Perry Yee didn’t quit.In this episode, former Navy SEAL Perry Yee takes you inside the moments most people never see…This isn’t just a story about toughness. It’s about why people quit… and why some don’t.We dive into what real pressure looks like, how humor keeps you sane when everything hurts, and why the biggest myth about elite performers… is completely wrong.Then we shift gears.Because what Perry did after the military might matter even more—building a mission that pairs veterans with the children of fallen heroes, turning loss into mentorship and purpose.This episode is about service.It’s about mindset.And it’s about what it actually means to protect what matters most.If you’ve ever wondered what you’d do under pressure…This one will make you think twice.
